What reading level is "abraham Lincoln" : An Oration book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was now that he made his immortal utterance, "A house divided against itself cannot stand. I beHeve the Government cannot endure permanently half slave and half free." That brave and heroic stand cost him a seat among the Senators of his time, but it gave him a throne among the immortals of all time.
Lacking in the personal charms and graces of the orator, but with able and impressive speech, of equal beauty and simplicity, blood earnestness and force of logic, he stood and plead for the lif...e of his country and the liberty of her four million swarthy slaves, as Demosthenes plead for Athens and Cicero for Rome and Burke for India, and while Douglas won the election, the verdict of the nation awarded the moral and intellectual victory to Lincoln, and the aroused people rallied to his standard, and crowned his brow with the proudest laurel that any free man ever wore.
They recognized him as the man of the hour, as we now recognize him as the man of the century and one of the few men of the ages, the man "sent from God." The American principle was on trial for its life.
